So, this is happening now?
Anyone on the coast reporting snow, or just rain?
Thanks.
It is a fall noreaster. Until recently we get them every year. Now we get bomb cyclones which are the end of the world. Get your milk and your beer and you are all set. Yes we will lose power, trees will come down and there will be flooding but it happens every year. No snow. All rain from what I can see.

Well, THIS blew my mind!! ....

THIS VIDEO GAME SECRET FILES 2 WAS MADE YEARS AGO IN 2009 ABOUT WHAT WE ARE SEEING TODAY WITH THE VOLCANIC ERUPTION ON LA PALMA, ARE YOU AWAKE YET? YOU CAN DISMISS THIS AS JUST A GAME OR CONSPIRACY THEORY , OR YOU COULD SAY THAT

Now.......don’t you become a believer, especially immediately following that scathing review regarding government imposed earthquakes !!




:popcorn3:
It's just interesting that this video is 12 years old. As far as the manufactured quakes, that's a whole different story. The grid pattern is because geologists placed the sensors in that pattern because I think they are scared.

Never heard of bomb cyclones until about a week ago. Now ya can't open your car door without hitting one.

REAL EXPLANATION: That website maps earthquake position (co-ordinates) in degrees and minutes, but not seconds. Each degree within the tropics spans about 40000/360=111 kilometers and each minute of arc spans about 111/60=1.85 kilometers. It is this 1.85 km grid that you see! ... If the grid system was not used with so many earthquakes, the map would show one giant red clump.

Are you sure about that?

Are saying that the sensors were recently placed, due to the recent activity?

I haven't seen anything yet other than from Bushcraft Bear, so ?? ETA: legit, maybe even two of them ETA2: revised down to 4.7 eq, with adjusted depth between the two readings

Earthquake Monitor website says 4.8Magnitude. But that can change.


ETA: it could still be revised up/down and location could be revised as well

I don't know why they are now showind two 4.8 EQs at same time very close together, I assume something will changes. Either revised up a bunch as one EQ, maybe one will be eliminated after location narrowed down, or both will remain ?? Not sure. Big elevation/depth difference, so most likely two.

ETA: revised down to one 4.7 with adjusted depth

It appears that there were two since they are different locations (but close to each other). To me (completely untrained) this would be an escalation.

They revised it down to one 4.7 with the depth adjusted between the previously reported two. Sensor locations and the timing difference in monitors registering is why reports end up being revised after analysis.

always subject to change on both magnitude and location, but a 4.1 for now (they have already downgraded some other 4 plus ones today, so, might downgrade this one too)

ETA: FOR NOW IGNORE THIS, they have placed it on neighboring island, not La Palma, but in case it gets moved again, leaving this for now.

I wonder if this is the true reason why the USGS isn't reporting on the La Palma quakes?

I don't know.

I thought maybe USGS doesn't report them anymore because being a volcano it produces so very many quakes from magma movement, unlike normal quakes.

Or maybe some kind of agreement with European monitoring sites to limit reports.

The European geological team is much smaller than the USGS team. The USGS doesn’t have any responsibility to review earthquakes outside of their areas of interest, however they do it if they have the bandwidth at that time. In a case like this the European team will dedicate staff to review the earthquakes for accuracy, since this is an event inside their area of responsibility.

The computer kicks out a generalized report and then humans review it and update it. There is no reason to have both agencies review the same earthquake. So the USGS bows out.

The two 4.7 earthquakes earlier was two seismic stations reporting the same earthquake in two different locations. Humans reviewed it and determined only one earthquake occurred, so they deleted one.

I get the analyzing data to refine reports. There is more than one European agency with monitors on the island.

EARTHQUAKE ALERT!! Strong one!

Initially being reported as a 4.6 by EMSC-CSEM. (volcano discovery not showing it yet)

ETA 7:27 PM CDT: upgraded to a 4.8 (see post #1163 for more info)


I see. Yes - European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) and the European Geological Survey (EGS) both have monitors. Usually, EGS will add extra sensors to volcanoes to get additional information the EMSC can’t provide.

There is a Spanish or a Canary Islands agency that has their own monitors too,

And the guy in charge of it resigned today, citing he wanted to leave the island. Seems like the sound of the volcano is getting to the locals after what 29 days now?
